Critics Review

“Positing education as the practice of freedom to balance against (or as an antidote to) the notion of education as credential-collecting,aTeaching Critical Thinking: Practical Wisdom seeks to help engaged educators navigate the contradictions and challenges of the academy so as to fulfill our mandate to be of compassionate service to students–as whole people, not simply as someone’s future employees.” – Rain Taxi
